SKIN WALKER

maybe I am a sensitive guera,

a person who wished they had dark brown skin

because I didn't notice the difference

between me and my people or you

when I look in the mirror I see spirit

nothing on me has much color or tone

does that make me lesser than a human

I don't have thin skin I have nerve endings

they open to the universe full strength.

Trees speak to me I hear their wilterness.

Like Funes the Memorious by Borges.

I can't watch things die off and stay silent

To speak of my color is nonsense when

I have no color cause I have no skin.
